Applications:
Type 347H is a high carbon austenitic chromium stainless steel. Found in applications that demand high temperature resistance, other major design features include:
Similar resistance and corrosion protection as Alloy 304
Used for heavy welded equipment when annealing is not possible
Good oxidation resistance, on par with most other austenitic stainless steels
Higher carbon allows for better high temperature creep properties
Due to Type 347H unique properties it is used in a variety of application in many of today’s critical industries:
Boiler tubes and casings
Oil and gas refinery piping
Radiant superheaters
High-pressure steam pipes
Heat exchanger tubes
Cabin heaters
Heavy wall-welded equipment
Aircraft exhaust stacks and collector rings
